If you were to list items in your wardrobe that you’d consider true staples, there’s a strong chance jeans and leggings would be included in the mix. Yep, you just can’t deny the versatility of these A+ basics. Sure, you may have a few items you typically wear with your jeans and leggings, but if you’re looking for a bit of inspiration as we head into spring, the below info is for you.

I Tried the Olaplex No.9 Serum—These Are My Honest Thoughts
The Olaplex product that I tend to use the most is No.6, the Bond Smoother. I use it as a heat-styling primer, applying a small amount to the lengths of my hair, and always see a dramatic improvement in smoothness and frizz control. So when I saw that the brand was launching a serum, I was a little confused. What was the product that I had been using for years, then? I decided to try the new serum, No.9, in a silo without any other Olaplex products so I could see how it performs and if it can compete with the other styling products in the range. It’s described as a lightweight serum that not only strengthens hair but also protects it from free radicals, pollution and heat damage too. The first thing to note is the texture. It’s a clear lightweight gel that sinks into the hair quickly....
I’m a Stylist— Here Are 25 Expensive-Looking Classics I’d Recommend From Arket
A good wardrobe is nothing without a solid base of classic capsule pieces. You know the ones— the items you pull out and incorporate into your outfits most days. The simple, yet far from boring staples you’d be lost without— it could be the perfect white T-shirt, pair of jeans or your favourite easy jacket that goes with everything. As a stylist, I’ve spent the best part of a decade searching for the perfect versions of these items to use in photo shoots or to recommend to all of my clients, as well as to fill my own collection with— and surprisingly enough the one place I always turn to isn’t the most expensive designer, it’s actually high street. In my opinion Arket classics win every time, and I constantly find myself suggesting the brand when people ask me where to find...
8 Jean-and-Shoe Pairings That Go Together Every Time
We all know how versatile a pair of jeans can be. After all, what other garment can take you from date night to the weekend with the same stylish flair and universal appeal? However, their ease is often dependent on another item: footwear. Shoes have the power to instantly change the mood of your jeans. For example, for a formal occasion, a pair of bejewelled heels will elevate your classic blues to glamorous new heights. Similarly, ballet flats will add polish to ripped or frayed-hem jeans—simply add a tailored blazer and a button-down, and you’ve got yourself a chic ensemble. So which shoes would I recommend wearing with jeans? I’m glad you asked. I’ve whittled down the shoes to wear with jeans that I truly believe work for just about every occasion you can think of. Ke...

3 Signs You’re Not Exfoliating Enough If You’re Over 40
What you want to avoid are overly aggressive mechanical exfoliants, which can cause damage no matter your skin type or age. “Any scrubs with large particles like apricot pits should be avoided, as they can cause micro-tears in the skin at any age,” Chilukuri says. “Anything that is too drying or used too frequently should also be avoided.” As for how to use these exfoliants at home, not much prep is needed—just make sure your skin is clean and makeup-free. “Do not use a washcloth to apply the exfoliating product,” Chilukuri says. “Use your fingertips and after rinsing off the exfoliating agent, immediately apply a hydrating moisturiser. When using the proper exfoliating product, you should not have to stop your retinol. Always use an excellent...
I Think This Is the Chicest Bag You’ll Find for Summer
Ever since Jonathan Anderson joined the Spanish heritage brand Loewe as creative director back in 2013, I have been considering purchasing one of its covetable bags. The hammock! The puzzle! The cushion tote! I just adore them all, and if I am ever to invest in a designer bag, there is no doubt about it that I would head straight to Loewe. The bags typically cost around £2000, however several years ago the house cleverly introduced an ‘entry level’ option—its logo-emblazoned basket bag. The rest is history, as these raffia totes are still selling like hot cakes. This year Loewe has debuted a new, more relaxed summer style—a canvas top handle bag which is under £1000, making it more accessible than the brand’s other signature leather styles. The Cubi is a newbie for spring ...
